Question about professions

alright so im gonna go troll this week and from what i hear ENG is the best profession for a lock i currently have enchanting and alch but im at a loss at wich one i should drop..so im asking you guys...and if you disagree then what are your opinions on what the best 2 professions are.

Eng/tailoring are the best right now i believe. depending on what you use more for gold i would drop the other. Making your own flasks, the time bonus, and 320 extra int are nice. I think ench give the same int and nearly free jade spirit(if you pvp) are nice. Just depends which you see being more profitable to you. I would keep alch with the new raid plus farming ToT you will use mroe flasks than Jade spirits

The theoretical best are engineering and herbalism (assuming demo) being slightly above tailoring. The others are all equal static bonuses, although Blacksmithing is sometimes preferred since you can choose to use secondary stats.

I believe Herbalism and Engineering are the best for Warlocks atm, at least for Demonology. Rolling with the Herb haste buff for 2 minutes is apparently good.

Engineering has traditionally been the "skilled player" profession throughout many expansions, as it offers a lot of tools to edge out an advantage with by using them smartly. Be watchful of the PTR, though: if epic gems are introduced, we may see Blacksmithing pull out ahead again, due to the increased value of sockets.

well i also saw it datamined that the tailoring cloak enchant would get a buff from 2k int to 2950 int, ofc it is only datamined so it should be taken with a grain of salt.

personally, i dont think epic gems will be introduced, they have always said that they were a pain in the ass to balance around but you never know, they might put them in, i just havent seen any indication for them except possibly the buffs to certain profs like the tailoring cloak enchant, so you might be right.

Controllable burst/CD stacking nothing tops eng/herb. I would think blacksmithing would top 320 static int based professions just from the standpoint that at bis gear levels secondary stats are ahead of int in terms of gemming budget. Tailoring is also solid but lightweave can RNG you good or bad depending on the RPPM trinkets/meta gem.
